I have often been asked, if it is possible to extract Simple Guiding Principles without going through AT6 Playing Emergence. The answer is no! Not in the sense that SGPs are extracted as part of developing a RTS.
However, that doesn't mean the basic SGP concept can't be adopted to another context.
Shozo Koide from Japan decided to pilot such an adoption with 20 LSP workshops for 180 employees in a social game company. The company invested €75.000 in the project and employees extracted 180 SGPs based on which the company created a CREDO with 30 action guidelines. The result was so successful that the company decided to run the same workshops the following year. We will of course with great interest follow the longer-term impact for the company of the "Credo" creating with LSP.
